A BLACK ROMEO FOR JULIET.
Montgomery Warns A Negro Scoun-
drel to Keep Out of Town.

Montgomery Warns A Negro Scoun-
drel to Keep Out of Town.
MONTGOMERY, ALA, Aug. Popular
indignation against an article in the Herald,
weekly paper edited by a colored man
named Jesse Dukes, reached climax here
to-day. The article came out Saturday and
is as follows: every day or so we read
of the lynching of some negro for outrag-
ing some white woman. Why is it that
white women attract negro men now more
than in former days. There was a time
when such a thing was unheard Of There
is secret to this thing, and
we greatly suspect it is the growing
appreciation of the white Juliet for the col
ored Romeo as he becomes more and more
intelligent and refined. II something is not
done to break up these lynchings it will be
so after awhile that they win lynch every
colored man that looks at white woman
with a twinkle in his eye" A large public
meeting to-Say adopted resolutions de-
nouncing him and warning him to keep
away from Montgomery at the peril of his
life. Dukes paper has been bitterly parti-
san and has more than once contained ar
ticles to which the whites seriously objected.
He was mail agent until President Cleve-
land came in.

A story Is told Of Dutchman and, Of

was in very great hurry the nag took
notion to stop and stay. The Dutchman
was annoyed. There he was with wagon
load of freight and but few minutes to
spare If he was going to catch the Fall River
boat. A great crowd of sympathizers gath.
cred around and made remarks. At last the
inevitable small boy worked his way to the
front and volunteered to make the horse
move. His proposition meeting with APP
provai, he started off and soon returned
with condiment and poured 1t into the an
ifnals ear In about ten seconds the horse
was speeding up the street, fiipperty flap,
scattering goods in all directions, smashing
and banging the wagon, and having things
his own way despite the frantic efforts OF
shouting policemen with outspread arms.
'Where you got dotr inquired the phleg-
matte Dutchman, taking bis pipe from his
mouth.
Right round the corner" replied the de-
lighted boy.
G'How much was the cost Of dotl" he next

TAKES NO STOCK IN THEM.
sCHoENBERG A FORGER.
The Mystery of His Departure No

The Mystery of His Departure No
Longer Puzzle for Anybody.
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 15-The mystery
which has been thrown around the tie
parture from this city of Emil Schoenberg,
who has for some time been supposed to be
a partner of John F. Betz, the million
aire brewer, in some of his enterprises, is
gradually being cleared up, and the state
nient is made that he is forger for large
amount. He was supposed TO have been
associated with Mr.. Betz III the con-
struction of new opera house in
the northwestern part of the city,
and was holder of stock to
the amount of Sl35, 900, and made President
of the Germania Brewing Company, a new
corporation. Mr.. Betz makes declaration
point blank that Schoenberg has forged his
name, and intends 10 have him arrested if
he is found.
Schoenberg was interested in good many
enterprises, but every asset he had was
hypothec2ted for loans, along with much
forged paper, the bogus collateral being in
most instances Of greater face value
than the genuine collateral. New
victims continue TO show up The
heaviest losers; so far as known, are Brewer
Betz, direct loss $4,000 and liability for
$4,000 more S. X. Ncster. n wealthy man
of Geneva, ~ Y, about $1,000: David
Stewart, $4,000; Il. II. Poulterar, $1,000;
Brewer Yuengling, OF New York. 5000.
The available assets arc SchoenberC's
house and some negotiable collateral, but
the margin between the assets and liabili-
ties will be Sl75, 900, representing the re-
suits of Schoenberg's diplomacy.

CONSERVATIVE CHAGRIN,
THE GLADSTONIAN CANDID ATE
WINS IN CHESHIRE.

Grave Importance of the Contest Ad-
mitted Before Hand by the Gov
ernment Organs - The Successful
Candidate Characterises the Result
as Message of Peace to Ireland.
LONDON, Aug. 15.-The election in the
Northwich division, of Cheshire on Satur-
day to fill the vacancy caused by the death
of r. Verdin, Liberal Unionist, resulted in
another victory for the Gladstoniaus. The
votes stood; Brunner, Gladstonian, 5, ll2;
Lord Henry Grosvenor, Liberal Unionist
3,9S3. Grosvenor is q son of the Duke of
Westminster. In the last election, when the
Liberal Unionist candidate was successful,
the vote was as follows; Verdin 4,4l6,
Brunner, Home Ruler, $685.
The result of the Northwich elections is
crushing blow to the Conservatives and Dis
sidents, who were confident that they would
retain the seat. Al their clubs the news
was received with CONSERVATION. The
home rule clubs and centres were correspon-
dinghy elated. A week ago the
Conservative Standard saw that
the issue would be trial
of strength under peculiarly significant cir
cumstances, and pointed out that though
MIR. Brunn0r was large local employer,
his opponent was a member of an old
Cheshire family that had been seated in the
county for centuries, and had special claims
for the support of every Unionist. Mr.. Brun-
ner made an address today to the electors
of his district. In the course of his
remarks, he said "You have won a victory
for Mr.. Gladstone and for Ireland. The
issue between the classes and the masses has
been made absolutely clear for the first
time. The significance of this message of
peace to ireland it is impossible to over
rate"
Owing to the exodus of Conservative
members of Parliament the government
will probably find it necessary to abandon
both the Allotment and Education bills
Mr.. Parnell has gone to Avondale, his estate

WASHINGTON, Aug. 15-The Secretary

each. Cramps bid for cruiser No. ) was
SIC, 900 lower than the San Francisco bid.
In referring the bids to the President
Secretary Whitney calls attention to this
fact and says: You are to say whether
from the bidding it appears that the bid of
the Union Iron Works is fair price for the
work. 1t was clearly not intended that the
lowest bidder should necessarily be entitled
to the contract for this rule was easy to
state and had been the law in previous
cases On the contrary Congress apparently
had IN view the difference in conditions of the
different parts of the country for this work,
and intended to permit the President to
consider these differences in determining
upon what should be deemed fair price.

THE PRESIDENTS ENDORSEMENT.
Upon this letter the President made the
following indorsement: under the provis-
ions OF the act of Congress authorizing the
construction of ships herein referred to,
which act requires that one of said ships
should be built on the coast of the Pacific
Ocean, or the waters connected Herewith,
unless the same cannot be there constructed
at fair cost, and the bid of the Union
Iron Works of San Francisco being within
$4,000 of the lowest bid for the ship to be
constructed according to the plans of the
Navy Department, which sum of $4,000
does not more than cover the difference
against the Pacific coast of the cost of
necessary transportation of materials, and
the bid by said company not appearing to
be in excess of the fair cost
of said ship, do hereby
pursuant to said statute and in accordance
with the manifest intention of Congress in
the premises, authorize and direct that the
contract for the construction of the ship
within named to be built according to the
plans of the Navy Department be given TO
the said Union Iron Works, of San Fran

A FIGHT WITH CoLoRoW.
Five of the Redskins Either Killed or
Wounded.

DENVER, Aug. 15.-A Denver NeIos
special from Glenwood says: Nothing has
been heard from Sheriff Kendall since
Thursday, but enough is known to
Justify the belief that a battle has
been fought with the Indians and
that Colorow got the worst Of it,
IL is known that five Indians were either
killed or wounded, and that renegade Utes
concluded to go back to the reservation II
permitted 10 do so. Colorow asks that he
be given fifteen days in which to take
the wounded Indians back to the Unitah
Agency. This request is believed
by some to be ruse TO give
him more time to receive reinforcements
from other renegade bands who are roam
ing over the country. Others believe he
will return to the agency and settle down
for time at least. Gen West will remain
here several days awaiting developments. !"
